With a sound anchored firmly between restraint and release, Kruger’s voice scales its walls of ambient noise, deftly weaving whispers and guttural invocations alike through its haunted, post-punk terrain; her uniquely sonorous vocal knowing exactly when to hush and when to howl.

The band’s immersive performances, shifting effortlessly between intimacy and abandon, are celebrated for their emotional precision and force – held together by the tight, intuitive interplay between Liú Mottes (guitar), Jean-Louise Parker (viola), Gidon Carmel (drums), and Andreas Bonkowski (bass) – drawing comparisons to Sonic Youth, PJ Harvey, and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds.

Kruger's voice also appears on the most recent album by The Underground Youth and the last two records of Swans.
